- Charlie_Case abstract "Charlie Case (ca.1860–1916) was a blackface comedian in America who wrote and sang vaudeville parodies of the 19th century ballad style. He influenced F. Gregory Hartswick, who wrote similar songs.Case is thought to be mulatto. Little official documentation of his personal history is available, but there are reports that he was mixed and sought to \"pass\". It was also not uncommon for African-Americans to perform in black-face as a loophole into the entertainment business in those days.In 1910, after recovering from a nervous breakdown, he went on tour in England, where for the first time he performed the song \"There was once a poor young man who left his country home.\" The 1933 film, The Fatal Glass of Beer is based on this song, and comedian W.C. Fields performs it at the onset. Critic Harold Bloom remarked several years later that Fields', \"croaking his ghastly dirge to the uncertain sound of his dulcimer, is a parodic version of the Bard of Sensibility, a figure out of the primitivism of Thomas Gray or William Blake.\"".
